Please read the relevant information carefully and observe all the Warnings and Notes strictly. Warning To avoid electric shock or personal injury, read the “Safety Information” and “Rules for Safe Operation” carefully before using the Meter. Digital Clamp Multimeter Model UT209 (hereafter referred to as “the Meter”) are 3 3/4 digits with steady operations, fashionable structure and highly reliable measuring instrument. The Meter uses large scale of integrated circuit with double integrated A/D converter as its core and has full range overload protection. The Meter can measure AC/DC Voltage, AC/DC Current, Frequency, Resistance, Diodes, Continuity and etc. 3 Model UT209: OPERATING MANUAL Unpacking Inspection Open the package case and take out the Meter.

II 600V, CAT. III 300V) and double insulation. CAT. II: Local level, appliance, PORTABLE EQUIPMENT etc., with smaller transient overvoltages than CAT. III. CAT. III: Distribution level, fixed installation, with smaller transient overvoltages than CAT. IV Use the Meter only as specified in this operating manual, otherwise the protection provided by the Meter may be impaired. In this manual, a Warning identifies conditions and actions that pose hazards to the user, or may damage the Meter or the equipment under test. A Note identifies the information that user should pay attention to. International electrical symbols used on the Meter and in this Operating Manual are explained on page 9. 5 Model UT209: OPERATING MANUAL Rules For Safe Operation Warning To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury, and to avoid possible damage to the Meter or to the equipment under test, adhere to the following rules: Before using the Meter inspect the case. Do not use the Meter if it is damaged or the case (or part of the case) is removed. Look for cracks or missing plastic. Pay attention to the insulation around the connectors. Inspect the test leads for damaged insulation or exposed metal. Check the test leads for continuity. Replace damaged test leads with identical model number or electrical specifications before using the Meter. Do not apply more that the rated voltage, as marked on the Meter , between the terminals or between any terminal and grounding. When measurement has been completed, disconnect the connection between the test leads and the circuit under test, remove the testing leads away from the input terminals of the Meter and turn the Meter power off. The rotary switch should be placed in the right position and no any 6 Model UT209: OPERATING MANUAL changeover of range shall be made during measurement is conducted to prevent damage of the Meter. Do not carry out the measurement when the Meter’s back case and battery compartment are not closed to avoid electric shock. Do not input higher than 600V between the two Meter’s input terminal to avoid electric shock and damages to the Meter. When the Meter working at an effective voltage over 70V in DC or 33V rms in AC, special care should be taken for there is danger of electric shock. Use the proper terminals, function, and range for your measurements. Do not use or store the Meter in an environment of high temperature, humidity, explosive, inflammable and strong magnetic field. The performance of the Meter may deteriorate after dampened. When using the test leads, keep your fingers behind the finger guards. To avoid electric shock, do not touch the bare wires, connectors, unused input terminals or the circuit under testing during measurement. Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before testing resistance, continuity and diode. Replace the battery as soon as the battery indicator appears. With a low battery, the Meter might produce false readings that can lead to electric shock and personal injury. 7 Model UT209: OPERATING MANUAL When servicing the Meter, use only the same model number or identical electrical specifications replacement parts. The internal circuit of the Meter shall not be altered at will to avoid damage of the Meter and any accident. Soft cloth and mild detergent should be used to clean the surface of the Meter when servicing. No abrasive and solvent should be used to prevent the surface of the Meter from corrosion, damage and accident. The Meter is suitable for indoor use. Turn the Meter off when it is not in use and take out the battery when not using for a long time. Constantly check the battery as it may leak when it has been using for some time, replace the battery as soon as leaking appears. A leaking battery will damage the Meter. 8 Model UT209: OPERATING MANUAL International Electrical Symbols AC (Alternating Current) DC (Direct Current) AC or DC Grounding Double Insulated Warning.

When frequency measurement has been completed, disconnect the connection between the testing leads and the circuit under test, and remove the testing leads away from the input terminals of the Meter. 26 Model UT209: OPERATING MANUAL F. DC Current Measurement (see figure 8) Warning The operating temperature must be 0 when measuring current. ~40 The measurement ranges of current are: 40A 1000A . and To measure current, do the following: 1. Set the rotary switch to 40A or 1000A . 2. When the Meter is at 400A range, the LCD displays 00.00. Press ZERO for zeroing if it does not display zero. It allows 10 bouncing digits after zeroing. 3. When the Meter is at 1000A range, it automatically separate 400A and 1000A range. The initial stage is 400A , the Meter displays 0.0. Press ZERO for zeroing if it does 27 Figure 8 Model UT209: OPERATING MANUAL not display zero. When the testing current is greater than 400A , it is not necessary to zero. 4. Hold the Meter tight, don’t release. The Hall components are very senstive not only to the magnet but also to heat and machines reaction force. Any shock will cause the changing in reading in the short time. 5. Press the lever to open the transformer jaw. 6. Center the conductor within the transformer jaw, then release the Meter slowly until the trasnformer jaw is completely closed, Make sure the conductor to be tested is placed at the center of the transformer jaw, otherwise it will casue deviation. The Meter can only measure one conductor at a time, to meausre more than one condutor at a time will cause deviation. Below testnig method can obtain more accurate DC current: 1. Power off the tested conductor current, 2. Press the lever to open the transformer jaw. 3. Center the conductor within the transformer jaw, then release the Meter slowly until the transformer jaw is completely closed. Make sure the conductor to be tested is placed at the center of the transformer jaw, otherwise it will cuase ±1.0 % deviation. 4. When the reading is stabled at the minimal, press ZERO to display zero 28 Model UT209: OPERATING MANUAL 5. Power on the tested conductor current, read out the reading after the Meter is stable. 6. This DC currrent measurment result is more accurate. Note The Meter adopts relative value zeroing. Press ZERO to display the present value as stored value and display zero. After that, all the measurement result displayed will automatically subtract the stored value. Press ZERO again to display the stored value. Press and hold ZERO to exit and back to normal operation. When measuring DC current, if the reading is positive, then the current direction is from up to down (see figure 9: the front case face up while the bottom case face down) When current measurement has been completed, disconnect the connection between the conductor under test and the jaw, and remove the conductor away from the transformer jaw of the Meter. 29 Model UT209: OPERATING MANUAL G.
